I have no clue how to use a Torrent or really what it is...

Thank you, MickeyPainless, for admitting that! I don't know either. what IS a "Torrent?" This is a new one on me.

A torrent file, basically, is a file that allows your computer to track other computers on the internet that is "seeding", which here means "is currently sharing the file on the internet", the particular file that you want to download. With this, it means that whichever website you download the torrent file from is NOT sharing the file itself, which is what causes so many people so much trouble.
